DESCRIPTION

As in many countries, the proportion of the population aged 60 and older in Moldova is anticipated to increase, raising the importance of further development of the care system moving forward. Alongside being in an early stage of development, little is known about the experiences, expectations and attitudes towards LTC of individuals living in the country. This research note aims to fill this gap by presenting novel data collected on attitudes, experiences, and expectations on LTC of individuals living in Moldova and the policy implications for the further development of the Moldovan LTC system.
